Recombinant soluble HA proteins used in this study. (A) Schematic depiction of antibody interaction with HA trimeric protein, HA1 protein, and HI (HA-conjugated nanoparticle). The triangle indicates the different number of epitopes targeted in the different assays. (B) Phylogenetic tree indicating genetic relationship of HAs from different influenza A subtypes. HA proteins used in this study are marked in yellow. (C) Schematic representation of the recombinant HA proteins, HA1 proteins, and HA-SpyTag proteins. The HA protein contains the HA1 and HA2 subunits fused to the GCN4 isoleucine zipper trimerization motif (GCN4) and Strep-tag II (ST). The HA1 protein contains the HA1 subunit of HA protein and ST. The HA-SpyTag protein has a schematic structure similar to that of the HA protein but carries an additional peptide SpyTag (Spy).
